Prof. Dr.-Ing. Chr. Schmid Institute of Automation and Computer Control Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Sciences Bochum Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Germany Prag View of the Ruhr-Universität Bochum The staff Virtual Laboratories in Engineering Education 1. Introduction 2. Learning & Media Didactics 3. Web-Based Remote Techniques 4. Learning System Facets including Virtual Laboratories 1. Introduction What are Virtual Laboratories ? A simulated laboratory on the local computer A set of simulated experiments on a computer Remote access to experiments via telepresence utilities For research and learning A set of real experiments in a laboratory network Integrated remote or simulated experiments in learning systems In Engineering Education Simulation and Hands-on-Experience is needed 2. Learning & Media Didactics Constructivistic Approach – Authentic activities – Explorative learning – Learning from the current situation – Mastering problems, dilemmas – Presentation of multiple aspects Medial Contemplation – Media are not "containers" of knowledge – Media are tools to (re)construct knowledge 2. Learning & Media Didactics Drill- and Practice strong behavioristic Kiosk Systems controlled paths, page machine Guided Tours navigation on fixed paths Learning Systems Electronic Books redesigned books, tutorials, lexicon machines Hypertext Systems cognitive perception, WWW Simulations, Laboratories active handling of information, explorative learning, virtual reality, hands-on experience, remote laboratories scope of interaction 3. Web-Based Remote Techniques Simulated laboratories animated GIFs Java applets virtual reality techniques Learning systems learning in lectures and exercises embedded simulated experiments DynaMit Real laboratories remote experimentation laboratory techniques RSVL 3.
